It's most common (at least from my perspective in the US) for non-US freelancers to find clients on freelance bidding websites like Elance. There are quite a few sites like it for you to choose from, all with different systems. It's also common, although unfortunate, for foreign freelancers to respond to Craigslist.org ads that are local to US cities. I'd recommend against doing that on a moral standpoint.
